WTF: Why does this face exercising device exist?

face-slimming-gadget-japan.jpg

We’ve come across our fair share of weird beauty gadgets here at Shiny Shiny, but this one has to be the strangest (and most useless) we’ve seen for some time. We genuinely couldn’t care less if it works, because it makes the person wearing it look ridiculous, and… someone’s gotta say it… it looks far too much like a crazy sex toy.

The Face Slimmer Mouth Exercise Mouthpiece is a new Japanese beauty gadget, designed to tighten and firm your face muscles. It promises great results if you use it for around three minutes a day while making a series of expressions and saying vowel sounds out loud.

Granted the idea behind this crazy contraption makes sense, by working out the muscles in your face with that kind of resistance in your mouth would (we presume) tighten everything up a little over time. Whether that tightening is noticeable and worth looking like some kinda caricature for, we’re not quite sure…

If you’re still convinced this is the magic answer to younger looking skin (it’s probably not) then you can get your hands on one from the Japan Trend Shop for $84. Just don’t leave it hanging around the house, even the most innocent minds are bound to get the wrong idea about your new “beauty gadget”…
